Pros

Employees are of the same age. Mostly fresh graduate with max. 2 years of experience.

Cons

Everything is very badly managed here from the management's side and also from the HR's side. - The most despicable thing this company often do is to fire their employees with no notice at all and for reasons that don't make sense. They fire employees without going through a performance review first, it is very unacceptable and HR also never do much to protect the employees here. I am sure what they do is against the labor/employment law, but they do it ruthlessly anyway. With this behavior coming from the management, as an employee you will never feel safe working here because nobody will defend you, not even HR. - Growth wise, employees are not given a clear career path. You are expected to just do your job according to what's being told by the management. At the same time, you won't be having clear directions from them. Fast pace DOES NOT MEAN unclear directions. Your job title is also meaningless here because you will be expected to do everything all together anyway without considering your main task and the background of your skillset. With this system, don't expect a good career path. The managerial levels don't care about your professional growth. You will go nowhere by staying here. - Working hours is too long. No one needs a 1-and-a-half hour lunch break! No work-life balance here. They just expect people to work without considering employees' well being. It will be acceptable if being compensated by private health insurance and a normal 365 sick leave you can take, or other additional benefits. But you only have 6 days of sick leave. Honestly, no employees wish to be sick anyway! Why is this company having so many trust issues with the employees? With a long working hour and no work-life balance, no private health insurance, and limited sick leave, how can they expect employees to perform good? - HR department is a huge red flag. They treat work contracts like it's meaningless. HR don't care about employees, from what i see they only care about recruiting talents but no actions taken to retain their employees. Even in talent recruitment they still do it very poorly. Most of HR are inexperienced. Imagine your rights and well-being as an employee are in the hands of inexperienced intern-level people? I think they don't know how to build a healthy and sustainable working environment here. Looking at they way they fire people without considering the employee's own performance tells a lot about their incapability in managing human resources!! (OTHER RED FLAG: you have to ask to see your OWN PAYSLIP] - The management is filled with people who have very poor management and leadership skills. The decision making process is so weird because it's based on subjectivity. Employees cannot voice their insights in the decision making process, so they just take whatever the management tells. And sometimes, the management fails to give the right decision. How can they sustain a business this way? The virality of this brand probably happened based on luck too. What a shame because the product is good, but no one is capable of handling the business well. - Crisis handling is also very bad. Don't even know where to begin with this. So before the blame eventually being pointed at the senior/junior level employees, i suggest to RUN.

Pros

- Afternoon tea once a month as a complimentary meal, and free products are also provided. - This is an excellent environment for skill development. It'll be the best place to start a career with a decent salary - The working environment is very positive. - It served as a resting phase in my career, as the work was highly segmented.

Cons

I have been employed here for a few years, and I must say that I have encountered variety of individuals. There were initially some inconsistencies with employee contracts, but I have observed improvements in their management recently. During my first year, I was promised that I would transition to a full-time position. However, I was outsourced for four months before returning to a contract position for another year. This situation created several administrative challenges, as I now have multiple BPJS numbers and multiple reference letters. Nevertheless, I am grateful to the HR department for assisting me in obtaining the reference letter from the outsourcing company. Regarding career progression, I have not observed significant opportunities for advancement or professional growth over the years. Recently, I have also found it difficult to maintain good communication with the leadership due to the multiple layers of hierarchy. In addition, there is an attitude component included in the KPI assessment, and I acknowledge that I may not always meet the expected standards in that area. However, I feel it is unfair that users and managers are able to evaluate staff attitudes, while the attitudes and behavior of leaders toward staff are not evaluated in the same way. Respect and professionalism should not be expected from staff alone when leadership does not consistently demonstrate the same standards.
